TIE EMIGRATION FUNDS

The Commissioners Of Emigration seem to
have a capital case against Secretary Fair
child. The contract under which they have
been acting was approved by Secretary Folger
former Chief Judge Of the Ncw-iOrk Court OF
Appeals, a jurist Of the highest ability and
lar gest experience. There seems TO be notion
haziy floating about The Treasury Department
at Washington that Secretary FairchId and
his assistants know moro than Judge Folger
and those with whom he conferred about
emigration and everything else 1t is ex-
tremely probable that this opinion is wholly
mistaken one, and II tho case gets into the
courts, as 1t is almost certain to do, The Sccrc-
taiy Of tho Treasury will probably be brought
promptly to book.
II is peculiarly characteristic and peculiarly
dirty Democratic trick to try TO starvo out the
Emigration Department by Withholding from 1t
tho funds which legally and properly belong
to it for The feeding and providing for tho
sick and helpless immigrants in its charge,
and the carving On Of the work Of Castle

called from private life and promoted to the
most important diplomatic post in Europe.
At Paris England has been represented for
many years bya model Ambassador, whose con-
slmmate tact and diplomatic resources have fire.
ouently prevented serious international COM
plications. To the same post is now dispatched
Lord Lytton. who is notorious for self-wl'l
impatencc of control and lack Of moderation
and caution. An Incompatible dipIomatist
who has been markedly successful in maintain
ing peace between two jealous nations, yields
his Mace to restless and ambitious war-maker
This diplomatic transfer cannot be regarded
as token of sympathy on the part of the
British Government with the cause represented
by Sir Lyon Playfair at Washington. The pre-
vcntion Of war by arbitration tribunals Is
policy, moreover which delegation from
Parliament cannot advocate with good grace
when they have been employed during the last
fifteen years in voting appropriations for active
in Abyssinia, South Africa,
Afchanistan, Egypt the Soudan and Burmah.
The recent history Of the British Empire has
been n continuous record Of wars and rumOrs
of wars. When England learns to abhor the
sayacery Of war as it is hated in America, a
great advance will be made in the direction Of
universal peace. Meanwhile, arbitration treaties
arc premature.

THE PRESIDENTS pERSON1H TRIUMPH.

TIE PRESIDENTS PERSONAL TRIUNPH.
NugwIlmp mOraiStS declare that the State
election is Il triumph for President Cleveland
and rood government. What have they to
say respecting the election in this city? That,
too. was Il personal triumph for the President,
since he interviewed directly on behalf Of Mr..
Fellows and his colleagues. Without this per-
sonal triumph for him in the local election
thcrc could have been no triumph for the
President and good government" in the State
election. What. then. have these moraists to
say about the Presidents personal triumph in
the election Of Colonel Fellows? DO they
look upon it as a victory for good government?
If they do, why have they not been fighting
on the sidc Of the boodicrs during the last
three weeks?
The rum power triumphcd in The State
election the bOodIcrs in the city election That
is the sum of the whole matter. \ vast cOrrup-
ton fund raised by brewers, iquor-Sclcrs
office holders and boodlcrs was used in this
city in purchasing votes on election day. II
the President won personal triumph in this
state and in this city it was only with the aid
Of bribery on a large scale effected by the lavish
use Of money by corruptcrs Of the franchise
The rum power defeated the party which made
y courageous stand against it in the last Legs
laturc. The boodlcrS defeated the public pros
ccutor who was mainly responsible for the
conviction Of their vcnal and corrupt associates.
The rum power purchased its triumph by
bribing voters. The boOdlcrs won their victory
in the same way. \ free suffrage was de-
bauchcd and all the interests Of good govern
mcnt were sacrificed by this unholy alliance
between Rum and Doodle.
When. therefore, these moraliSts profess to
find in the results Of Tuesdays work in this
city and State vote Of confidence in the Prcsi-
dent in the interest Of good government. they
must accept ali that the victory implies. They
must lool, upon the President as the special
patron Of rumscllcrs, boodlcrs and bribcrs.
Their victory is his he shares with them the
dishonor Of corrupting free suffrage and pur-
chasing voters Ike cattle; and the interests
Of good government" resolves itself into dis
ingenious partisan phrase like Presidential
dignity" and Public office is a public trust"

The Presidents commonplace in reply to
the British Populations appeal on behalf Of
arbitration are discussed in London with
languid interest 1t is considered a hopeful
indication, rs We notice from the
latest files Of the English press,
that the memorial signed by two hundred
members Of Parliament should have been
ccivcd by the Chief Executive at Washington
with expressions Of sympathy and respect The
President would have been strangely lacking
in courtesy if he had cynccd hostility to pro-
pOsals presented in the name OF onc-thrd Of
the members Of the British Parliament. He
was justified ill expressing sympathy with the
movement in general terms. America has
pacific destiny among the nations. 1t loves
tho things that stand for peace. II hates arms,
bloodShcd a1d war plea for arbitration as
a substitute for war commended itself TO the
judgment and sympathy of Americans, and
the President fairly represented public opinion
in his glitcring gcncratics In reply to Sir
| Lyon playfair. AT the same time he discerncd
the practical difficulties in the way Of Il negotia-
ton Of such a treaty as the British delegation
had proposed, and he cautiously declined to
commit his Administration to so probcmatic
a policy.
AT the moment when these friends Of inter-
national arbitration were actively employed in
cnlisting tho Presidents sympathics, their own
Government was taking step in the opposite
direction. Tho appointment of Lord Lytton as
Ambassador ut Paris contrasts strangely with
The pacific policy Of the 200 members Of Par
lament represented by Sir Lyon playfair and
his associates. lilo was responsible for one of
tho most unnecessary and incxcusablo of the
many recent wars in which Great Britain has
been engaged. Tho invasion OF Afghanistan in

aggression of which strong and overbcaring
nation was ever guilty. Tho Yiooroy whose
